Parental Control, Ep 54: Is Your Child’s Bedroom Toxic? The Kids’ Products Responsible For Causing Harmful Indoor Air Pollution

We welcome to the show Emma Bianco, founder of eco kids’ brand Pure Earth Collection.

We ask Emma’s advice on how to create the perfect (non-toxic) nursery, the products to invest in, and the ones to avoid. We discuss a list of common kids’ clothes, bedding, products and toys responsible for causing harmful indoor air pollution and what alternatives we can be investing in.

Emma tells us everything we need to know about microplastics, where they can be found in our children’s bedrooms, and the steps we can take to make our children’s environment a safer place. We discuss the importance of her #PlasticFreeBaby campaign and she shares her top five easy switches we as parents can make to detox our homes.

Nala's Dream by Taylan Kurtul

Nala’s Dream is a magical children’s story with an incredibly poignant story behind it. It was first imagined by five-year-old Taylan Kurtul, who dreamed up an adventure in which his real-life kitten, Nala, travels into space. Taylan sadly died in February 2024, just eight months after being diagnosed with a medulloblastoma brain tumour. His mum lovingly brought the story he created to life as a book in his memory, celebrating Taylan’s wonderful imagination while raising vital funds for Brain Tumour Research. A beautiful legacy filled with adventure, love and a little boy’s magic.
